Hoch was great last year, but after arbitration is now an anchor around the Royals neck. Watch him rehab for a year. Can't give him a contract next year under any circumstances. Hoch experiment is over. Nothing to see here.

Master P and Ricky Williams want to formally thank Ervin Santana and his team for finally taking them off the hook.

Despite word Santana will take a 1-year deal, Moore says Royals "moving forward" w/out him. "The candidates for our rotation are in-house."

Sources add: Santana wants to sign with a strong offensive club. Both #BlueJays and #Orioles fit that description and have shown interest.

Santana unwilling to wait on 1-yr deal, even though he would be exempt from ’14 qualifying offer after Opening Day. Wants to be in camp now.

Sure hope the Royals have the insurance placed on Hoch's contract that if he gets injured, that the Royals should be able to get some of that money back.

Well Luke, you let the team down 5 of the last 6 years so what's another?!

He was not insured. Teams don't do those except for huge long-term deals. The premium and terms these days apparently make it not worth it except for insuring deals that would cripple your team if they get hurt.

For those asking, I'm told the Royals do not have insurance on Luke Hochevar's contract.

another Santana tidbit, back when Santana's representation was still up in the air.

Andy McCullough ‏@McCulloughStar 8h
Dayton Moore spoke with Ervin Santana's agent today, and says there's still not a fit. But he did say Jay Alou is repping Santana.

Getting Santana back would sure make me feel a lot better about the pitching staff this year. Another pitcher like Guthrie ( they claim Vargas gets into trouble a lot) doesn't make make me feel like this years staff will be better then last years
